Aerolase

Aerolase® technologies deliver the highest levels of versatility, efficacy and value to clinicians so they may deliver the highest levels of comfort, safety and satisfaction to their clients.

Aerolase represents a new generation of medical aesthetic lasers, which are spectacularly versatile – they are designed not only for permanent hair reduction on any area of the body, including the face, underarms, bikini area, back and legs, but are also used for skin rejuvenation and tightening, acne, rosacea, pigmentation problems, vein removal and even scar revision.

The Neo’s unique Micropulse-1064 technology delivers energy to the skin 30-50 times faster than other lasers.

“This explains why older lasers cause a slight discomfort with each laser pulse, similar to a snapping of a rubber band,” says Dr. Irina Minina.

“With our new LightPod technology, patients of all skin types can receive safe, gentle and effective treatments without the use of messy cooling gels or anesthetics; solely using a beam of light to touch the skin.” The Neo’s pulse effectively targets tissue structures without causing any damage to the surrounding skin – resulting in the highest levels of treatment comfort, safety and efficacy.

NovaThreads

With age, the face loses its toned appearance and starts sagging. The muscle and skin tissues of the face lose their firmness and strength, ushering in a period when a person starts looking old and tired.

Until now, it was thought that getting back the true youthfulness and shape of the face as a whole was a complicated process, even though problems such as wrinkles and lines could be dealt with. NovaThreads promises to reverse all these fears with its tremendous power to restore the firm, youthful shape of the face.

The Concept Behind NovaThreads

Think of a building under construction. The entire structure is supported and given shape by a network of scaffoldings and frames. As long as this network stands strong, so does the structure. NovaThreads works on a similar principle.

NovaThreads is a very minimally invasive procedure where a series of supportive threads are inserted into your skin, parallel to the tissues. The idea is to create a kind of scaffolding throughout your facial structure, which will give the face and neck improved support and shape.

The threads themselves encourage the production of collagen protein, which helps to bring back the firm, youthful appearance of your face and neck. The collagen-production rate reduces with age, so the extra boost that their production gets from the NovaThreads procedure does wonders for your face and neck.

The threads themselves are made of Polydioxanone, which has traditionally been used in facial-restoration procedures. Never before has a procedure been so effective as NovaThreads in helping people reap the maximum benefits of Polydioxanone.

The Benefits of NovaThreads

  • Minimally Invasive: Unlike most other procedures that rejuvenate the face and neck, NovaThreads is a simple option and does not involve cutting or scarring. It only involves the pricks from the thin needles with which the threads are inserted – which are virtually painless!
  • No Recovery Time: Because it is such a minor procedure, you will not need to waste much time on recovering. You can leave the clinic almost immediately after the procedure!
  • Long-Lasting Effects: This is one of the top benefits of NovaThreads. The effects of the procedure can be seen for an incredibly long time, allowing you to enjoy your beautiful, youthful appearance for longer.
  • Can Be Combined with Other Procedures: If you want to amplify the effects of NovaThreads, you have the option to combine the procedure with others such as fillers and Botox injections without any kind of side-effects or negative reactions.

Before & After

Botox

Worry lines, crow’s feet, frown lines and neck bands come naturally with aging, making us look older, tired, angry or sad. Neuromodulators such as Botox® and Xeomin soften existing wrinkles and lines and prevent their progression and deepening, leaving you a younger and revitalized appearance.

Botox®, by Allergan, is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe crow’s feet lines and frown lines between the eyebrows in adults. The full effects of Botox® take about 10 days, but you will see see the results gradually kick in throughout the week.

Xeomin, by Merz Pharmaceuticals, has now been approved for some cosmetic indications – Moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Now that Xeomin is available and FDA-approved, doctors can use it both on-label and off-label to treat the same facial lines treated by Botox, including frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles.

“In just a few minutes, these neuromodulators can temporarily weaken facial muscles beneath the wrinkled area to relax the skin and restore its youthful appearance.”

Did you know? These injectable treatments are not just for wrinkles anymore! They can effectively reduce embarrassing excessive sweating as well as relieving discomfort and pain in some muscles.

Neuromodulators are fantastic to fight the following:

  • Wrinkles & fine lines
  • Frown lines between the eyebrows
  • Fine lines above the lip
  • Crow’s feet on the sides of the eyes
  • Heavy forehead furrows
  • Skin bands on the neck
  • Hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating
  • Discomfort, pain, and tension headaches

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is one of the least invasive ways to improve the appearance of your skin. Sun exposure, acne, or just getting older can leave your skin tone uneven, wrinkled, spotted or scarred. A chemical solution is applied to the skin and removes the damaged outer layers. The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin.

Our new-generation chemical peels are very comfortable, have minimal down time or peeling, and are very effective. No need to worry about burning, peeling, or hurting!

A chemical peel can help improve:

  • Acne or acne scars
  • Age and liver spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Freckles
  • Irregular skin pigmentation
  • Rough skin and scaly patches
  • Scars
  • Sun-damaged skin

“Although chemical peels are used mostly on the face, they can also be used to improve the skin on your neck and hands.”

Dermal Fillers

Overt time your face changes in many ways due to normal aging, genetics, and environmental factors. Lines and wrinkles become more noticeable, but there are also other aging signs such as mid-face volume loss. Your cheeks may flatten and the skin may begin to sag.

At Skin Perfections Medical Spa we carry a variety of dermal fillers designed to diminish facial lines and restore volume and fullness in the face: Juvederm, Radiesse, and Belotero

JUVÉDERM® is the #1 selling collection of hyaluronic acid fillers in the US. Each product in this collection of fillers adds volume to a different area of the face to lift cheeks, smooth parentheses lines, or plump the lips. The results are remarkably natural-looking and long-lasting.

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC injectable gel is for deep injection for cheek augmentation to correct volume loss in the mid-face of adults over 21.

JUVÉDERM® XC injectable gel is for injection into the facial tissue for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.

JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC is for injection into the lips and perioral area for lip augmentation in adults over 21.

RADIESSE® and RADIESSE® (+) are dermal fillers that are used for smoothing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the creases that extend from the corner of your nose to the corner of your mouth). RADIESSE® is also used for correcting volume loss in the back of the hands.

BELOTERO BALANCE® is a prescription injection that is approved to temporarily smooth out and fill in moderate-to-severe nasolabial folds (the folds or wrinkles that go from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth).

“Dermal fillers can be very helpful to those with early signs of aging as they diminish facial lines and restore volume and fullness in the face.”

HydraFacial MD

Have you ever wondered how celebrities go from a facial right to the red carpet on the very same day? After all, getting a facial done right before a big event is typically a bad idea, as the exfoliation and extractions can leave your skin looking red and feeling sensitive. The answer is a facial treatment that’s lighter and gentler on your skin: HydraFacial MD.

What Is HydraFacial MD?

HydraFacial MD is a revolutionary treatment used to address numerous types of common skin problems that result from the aging process and environmental factors. It smoothes out wrinkles and fine lines, restores elasticity and firmness to the skin, gives skin an even tone and a new vibrant look, helps even out skin texture, addresses brown spots and acne scarring, helps treat congested and oily skin, and shrinks enlarged pores.

This facial is a perfect option for patients who have sensitive skin. It can give you more even-looking skin without creating any unwanted irritation or redness. Plus, the treatment only takes 30 minutes to complete!

How Does It Work?

The HydraFacial treatment is different from others because it features a vacuuming action that’s similar to a double helix in order to exfoliate the skin cells that are dead and get rid of excess oil in the skin.

Instead of prying dead cells loose like many other facial treatments, this method uses a serum that helps to loosen the debris and dead cells from the skin. It also vacuums the surface of the skin with its soft silicone tip. The treatment combines extraction and infusion techniques to ensure the comfort of the patient.

Unlike other treatments, the HydraFacial doesn’t use strong pressure for extractions. Instead, it uses vacuum suction to suck up and dislodge all the unwanted materials from the skin. This makes the de-gunking process completely painless and a lot gentler on the skin than traditional facials.

The Many Benefits of HydraFacial MD

A HydraFacial doesn’t just exfoliate and de-gunk the skin. It also lifts away tension from your temples and jaws. The treatment is usually accompanied by a facial massage that relaxes facial muscles.

The machine will cleanse your skin again after the exfoliation and the massage. The machine then does lymphatic drainage. This helps to naturally flush out all the toxins that are found beneath the surface of the skin. Further exfoliation will then be done using a wand. Patients usually only feel a sort of suction sensation without any further discomfort; all they experience is a cooling sensation.

This treatment shows amazing results without all the discomfort and irritation that comes with traditional cosmetic treatments such as deep-cleansing facials. Besides being effective, it is also affordable. It is well worth the money and one of the most cost-effective facial treatments out there.

JetPeel

JetPeel Brownsville

JetPro is advanced skincare technology designed to treat skin and enhance confidence. Jet propulsion technology adapted for the aesthetic industry enables the most comfortable, healthy treatment and fast visible results. Beyond the skin, JetPro helps people look and feel fresh, healthy and amazing, building confidence in themselves and their skincare – as never before.

JetPeel BrownsvilleHow JetPro Works

JetPro uses advanced jet propulsion technology harnessed to provide deep transdermal treatment in a compact, easy-to-use device. The JetPro creates high-pressure, fine liquid jet streams applied to the skin with the patented JetPeel handpiece. At a 45° angle, the subsonic speed jet streams place gentle yet powerful pressure on the skin surface, exfoliating the epidermal layer with microdermabrasion, and preparing it for transdermal treatment. Applied perpendicularly, the powerful jet streams stretch the skin to create microchannels in the dermis.

Used in conjunction with Jet Solutions, treatment formulas for a range of cosmetic conditions, the jet streams enable hydroporation of highly active, nutrient-rich substances via micro-droplets delivered deep into the dermis. There is no wait time – the direct delivery deep into the dermis creates results that are visible on the same day.

The device uses no needles, and there is no skin breakage at all. This means that treatment is 100% pain free, does not lead to scar tissue, and requires no recovery period or downtime. Clients can immediately go about their normal routine as soon as the treatment is over. Best of all, the results are clinically proven and visible, and – combined with the relaxing and rejuvenating treatment experience – the client discovers new radiance and confidence, all thanks to the advanced JetPro treatment device.

Platelet Rich Plasma (Prp) Therapy

Is your skin tone not as healthy and smooth as on previous occasions?

Have you noted fine lines and sagging skin around your eyes, cheeks and mouth?

Are you conscious of the puffiness and dark circles below your eyes?

PLATELET RICH PLASMA (PRP) THERAPY is recommended solution to these skin problems.

Platelet Rich Plasma is a concentration of platelets in the blood that are crucial to wound healing. The platelet-rich plasma is full of growth factors which can aid in the repair process of tissue, including the skin. When used for skin rejuvenation, PRP releases growth factors into the skin to expedite the body’s own repair process and stimulate new collagen and elastin.

PRP therapy is done by collecting blood from the patient and spinning it in a centrifuge for 15 minutes to separate the platelets from the blood. This “platelet-rich plasma” is drawn out and can then be used via injection or micro-needling back into the patient. Micro-needling with PRP application is an ideal treatment for smoothing fine lines, wrinkles, and scars or even increasing plumpness and overall rejuvenation of the skin.

PRP is best known for its wonderful act of skin rejuvenation.

When PRP is injected into particular parts of the skin, it stimulates the growth of new collagen, revitalizes skin tissue and hence leads to a naturally smooth and firm skin.

As a result, PRP treatments soften wrinkles and create a smoother skin feel and tone. Platelet Rich Plasma therapy is recommended to soften below eye puffiness, enhance the overall skin tone, texture and tightness especially in the areas where fillers are not able to reach.

We combine PRP Injections with our state of art Cosmo Pen , micro needling treatment to enhance PRP infusion .

Venus Viva

Is a busy schedule preventing you from giving your skin the treatment it needs? Looking for a one-stop way to treat pigmentation issues, scarring, fine lines, and large pores at the same time? Does the thought of lasers and surgeries deter you from going to a skin care clinic? If so, Venus Viva is here to help.

Venus Viva

Venus Viva can resurface the skin to smooth away the damage inflicted on it by environmental factors and aging. With Venus Viva, your dream of achieving smooth, supple, and blemish-free skin can be a reality.

Venus Viva can:

  • Treat red and brown spots and other pigmentation problems like rosacea and melasma
  • Minimize the size of pores and pockmarks
  • Fade away scars, stretch marks, and acne blemishes
  • Smooth out the skin texture
  • Tighten sagging skin
  • Remove lines and wrinkles
  • Stimulate collagen production

How It Works

The handheld device used for Venus Viva treatment contains micro pins that deliver heat into the deeper skin layers using nanofractional radio frequency energy. This causes very small controlled wounds in the skin surface. The body’s own healing mechanism is harnessed to repair these wounds. The new skin cells that are formed from the surrounding healthy cells fill up the wounds, resulting in the fading of skin blemishes and scars.

The healing process also activates collagen-producing cells called fibroblasts. The collagen that is formed strengthens the matrix of the skin, making it firm. In this manner, lines and wrinkles disappear.

Together, these two processes give the skin a smoother and firmer texture. They help the skin regain its youthful glow and radiance.

Benefits of Venus Viva Treatment

Venus Viva offers better results than many other skin-resurfacing treatments. It comes with a number of benefits:

  • Suitable for all skin types – Some skin-resurfacing treatments are unsafe or unreliable for use on darker skin tones. Unlike these treatments, Venus Viva is safe and effective for all complexions.
  • Suitable for use on all body parts – The treatment can be applied to any part of the body except eyelids and lips.
  • Less treatment time – Delivery of nanofractional radio frequency energy in an area takes only a few fractions of a second. Because of this, the overall treatment only takes a few minutes to complete, making it incredibly convenient.
  • Less downtime – The recovery period for Venus Viva is just a few hours, so you’ll be able to get back to your daily activities in no time.
  • Less pain – The needles used for the treatment are tiny, and the nanofractional radio frequency energy only causes a feeling of mild heating on the skin. Because of this, any pain felt during treatment can be likened to the feeling of a sunburn. We will apply topical numbing creams over the treatment area if required.

The Treatment

Before starting the procedure, the patient’s skin type is evaluated, their relevant medical history is studied, and their expectations from the treatment are communicated to the practitioner. The treatment is delivered according to these important factors. The number and frequency of the sessions vary on a patient-to-patient basis.
